fquick is down

edit: its back up... nice a black one finally!! I just hate how much they raised the roof line from the concept, but I'm getting used to it slowly.

Also you can see the right exhaust tip in the rear pic, and the left one in the camo pic... guess this is the Z

Loving the black without any camo...I agree onstar is ugly...but that car is hot...just as long as it is...

Cheap
Light
Has an LS3

If it has those three I will be all over it brand new.

yeah i saw this on autoblog.com and i posted it over in the texas area, and like i said there it kinda reminds me of a CTS a bit.

I showed it to a coworker and the first thing was what car is that? i said the new camaro's coming out and the reponse to it? looks nothing like it.

Iunno i think i would still take my buddy's camaro over this newr one. it lacks something for me.

I hope those aren't the production headlights. Other than the dual/dual headlights I like it.

Not nearly as mean as the concept... but it is still lookin' good...I like it in black far more than in white. Black with grey stripes is what I'm trying to convince my dad into getting.
